Benefits of technology

The proposed invention is about designing a percussion device that users can play with one hand while using several percussion instruments. The device is also designed to be stronger and more durable. Its technical effects include improving the ease of use and strength of percussion instruments for users.

Problems solved by technology

However, playing the spoons requires special training.
For example, with no training, it is possible to hold the spoons incorrectly in the hands.
In this case, fingers that hold the spoons can become sore.
The disadvantage of this musical instrument is the relative instability of the mounting which can result in damage of wooden parts of the mounting.
The disadvantage of the tool is the inability to obtain a rapid pace.
However, this invention relates to claves only and does not show how it can be used with other percussive devices.
The main disadvantage of this device is the need for additional equipment for disassembling and assembling the device.
Furthermore, it is not clear from the description how it is possible to attach more than two percussion instruments in said device.

Embodiment Construction

[0022]A percussion device shown in FIG. 1 consists of three percussion elements. In this example, maracas are used as percussion elements 1. There are holes 3 made in the mounting unit 2 which is made of elastic material, for example, rubber. The holes are arranged at an angle α to each other. Stems 4 of the percussion elements 1 are positioned in holes 3 of the mounting unit 2. In the aforementioned example, the percussion instrument is played by “shaking,” in a usual manner, but it is also possible to hit the percussion elements 1 against each other to add supplementary features to the percussion device.

[0023]Another example of a percussion device is depicted in FIG. 2. Spoons are used as the percussion element 1. In this case, the percussion device is U-shaped. The mounting unit 2 is made of plastic polymeric material, for example. Holes 3 are made in the protruding parts 5 of the U-shaped percussion device. The stems 4 of the spoons are mounted in the holes 3 so that the concave...

Abstract

The claimed device relates to devices for creating sound, to percussion devices in particular, and can be used both as a rhythmic instrument and as the background sound effects for sporting events. The percussion device comprises at least two percussion instruments 1 and the mounting unit 2. The percussion instrument 1 has a stem 4 and percussion surface which interacts with another percussion instrument 1 and / or percussion surface. The mounting point 2 is made of elastic material and has holes 3 for mounting the stems 4 of the percussion instruments 1, wherein the maximum angle between the axes of the holes does not exceed 45°. In this particular case, spoons can be used as percussion instruments.

Description

FIELD OF THE INVENTION[0001]The claimed device relates to devices for creating sound, to percussion devices in particular, and can be used both as a rhythmic instrument and as the background sound effects for sporting events.BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION[0002]Wooden spoons are known to be used as the rhythmic percussion instruments. There are many techniques for playing the spoons. However, playing the spoons requires special training. For example, with no training, it is possible to hold the spoons incorrectly in the hands. In this case, fingers that hold the spoons can become sore.[0003]The use of percussion devices is known in the prior art. A musical instrument called “Spoons in the mount” and described on the website http: / / www.masteras.ru / catalog / shum / lozhki / lozh_stan consists of two wooden spoons that are connected together by a vinyl chloride ring with a diameter of 20 mm. The stem ends of the spoon are ground down at an angle of 45 degrees. At the rear ends of the stems a hid...
